Description

When the leafs start to change color each fall, and the drive to deer hunt all day reaches its peak, the tune of the "hunting widow" is amplified across the country. Not to exclude the other hunting seasons, but deer hunting seems to take the brunt of this near syndromatic phenomenon.  Laura Eakin, the wife of a hardcore deer and elk hunter, once fell victim to this situation.  And, in an effort to pseudo-retaliate against this status quo, Laura started a podcast known as The Hunting Widow Podcast.   It started as a project where Laura planned to gather her hunting widow friends and verbally express their disdain for the situation.  That was the intent, but what actually happened was something completely different.  Instead of forming a quasi support group laced with microphones, Laura found herself interviewing lady hunters from across the country, beginning a life of hunting for herself,  and has formed what is arguably the only lady-hunter focused podcast in the iTunes catalog.  Laura goes into detail about why she started the show, how it changed her perspective on hunting altogether, and how she feels her show contributes to getting more women into the field.
